NY Times Editorial Page Pulls Out All the Stops for Desperate Democrats (and only Democrats)

With Republicans aiming to take over the House and make gains in the
Senate, the Times clearly thinks there is much at stake in today's
elections. That's reflected in a beefed-up page of editorial
endorsements this morning. The paper's 2010 electoral endorsements
not only take in the usual metropolitan areas of New York State and
Connecticut (skipping New Jersey this year), but around the nation,
making endorsements in eight Senate seats, nine House seats, and eight
governors' offices.

Compare that scatter-shot approach to Election Day 2008,
a presidential election year, when the Times (according to a
nytimes.com search) settled for endorsing candidates for president (Who?
You'll never guess), and for a few congressional races in New York
State, New Jersey, and Connecticut.

On Election Day 2006,
a mid-term election like the one today, the paper also confined itself
to New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut in its endorsements.
